Jose Mourinho in advanced talks with Cameroon for coaching job – CRTV sports journalist
Senior CRTV sports journalist and editorialist, Raphael Nkoa, has said world renowned coach Jose Mourinho, is in advanced talks with Cameroon authorities for the coaching job of the national team.
Nkoa made the disclosure on the national broadcaster’s flagship French sports programme ‘Fou Fou Foot’.
In an interview during the Portimao Moto GP event on Sunday in Portugal, Mourinho indicated that he is eager to return to coaching.
The former Chelsea manager was sacked by AS Roma in January after two and a half years with the club, winning the 2022 Europa League Conference title and qualifying for the Europa League final in the process.
While at Sunday’s Moto GP event, the Portuguese said he is ready to coach anywhere. “Never say no, especially in football. My life is football, I can train anywhere, I have no problems.”
The 61-year-old has yet to decide on his next destination.
His reported discussion with the Cameroon authorities comes at a time when the national team is in search of Rigobert Song’s replacement. The Cameroonian’s contract was not renewed after an unsatisfactory stint.
